Setting up Nodemailer

Lecture 374:- Setting up Nodemailer

To set up Nodemailer in a Node.js application, follow these steps:

1. Install Nodemailer package:

   Copy code

   npm install nodemailer

2. Require Nodemailer in your application:

   javascriptCopy code

   const nodemailer = require('nodemailer');

3. Create a transporter object with the SMTP transport options:

   phpCopy code

   let transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({    host: 'smtp.gmail.com',    port: 465,    secure: true,    auth: {        user: '[email protected]',        pass: 'your-email-password'    } });

4. Create an email message:

   vbnetCopy code

   let mailOptions = {    from: '[email protected]',    to: '[email protected]',    subject: 'Subject of the email',    text: 'Text body of the email' };

5. Send the email using the transporter object:

   luaCopy code

   transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, (error, info) => {    if (error) {        console.log(error);    } else {        console.log('Email sent: ' + info.response);    } });

Note that the email sender's email and password should be valid and the SMTP options should be set to the correct values for the email service being used.
